On Friday, administration officials in Rajasthan's Sawai Madhopur district held a meeting to review the preparations ahead of Vicky Kaushal and Katrina Kaif's wedding celebrations at the Six Senses Fort Barwara. The law and order arrangements were discussed due to the celebrity guests. The wedding organisers were also present. "The meeting aimed for smooth functioning of traffic and transport," said Rajendra Kishan, Sawai Madhopur district collector. He added, "Directions have been given that guests should be fully vaccinated. An RT-PCR test is compulsory for those who have not taken both doses. We have been informed that there will be 120 guests from December 7 to 10." Though the star couple continues to be tight-lipped, it is now clear that the rumoured wedding is indeed happening.

The two have been up and about personally inviting their near and dear ones for their big day. Lokhande and Jain met through common pals in 2018 and their friendship soon blossomed into love. Initially, they preferred to keep their relationship under wraps.

The biopic on world chess grandmaster Viswanathan Anand is not happening anytime soon. Aanand L Rai's directorial venture was announced last year.
